Well, I do agree that liberal scholarship is something to be gravely concerned about when reading books. However, I think that I understand Patton's point. I think that I agree with him. I'd be glad to hear your responses to this. What do you think? Are conservatives handling the texts of Scripture with adequate integrity? Do conservatives tend to read their presuppositions into their exegesis?
Why I am Grateful to Liberal Scholars"I remember one professor at Dallas Seminary telling me that Evangelicals had learned more from liberal scholars about biblical interpretation over the past century than they had from the most conservative scholars. I also remember Charles Ryrie’s famous (infamous?) assertion, “There is nothing more sought after by an evangelical professor than to be called a scholar by a liberal.”
